Mugen Power 1800mAh Extended Battery

http://www.mugen-power-batteries.co...nded-battery-for-htc-desirez-t-mobile-g2.html
says it's out of stock right now. I'll be getting one soon though. Mugen is definitely a trustworthy company.

Needs to be cheaper. :[

You can get a 1800mAh battery for HTC TouchPro2/Evo (that is the same battery) for less... and not from Mugen. But you have to take the RED ones.
I've got one of them and my battery life is really impressive.

Same here, plus you can get two of them for around 30 bucks. Between underclocking down to 245 when the screen is off and the battery, I get a ridiculous amount of battery life.

Damn 44.95 is indeed too much $$$. I would pay that kind of money for minimum a 2200mah one

Single and kit links above - all you need is a nail clipper to clip off some of the black plastic so the battery sits flush in the phone. I also removed the red label on one side (it just peals off). Some have said that it fits without any mods though. Im still in the testing phase of my read chictech. Before power cycling it the battery life was terrible, now that Ive cycled it Im seeing better battery life then stock OEM. I unplugged @ 7AM and I have 65% battery life left on Virtuous 0.70 with moderate to heavy usage throughout the day. HSPA+ on full time, WIFI on full time....see for yourself, I think the singles are only 15$, thats what I got.

Ha! Thanks for the idea! I just pulled my TP2 battery and clipped off the tab and now have an extra 200 mAh for free. Might give me an extra hour or two of battery life. I don't know about those 1800mAh batteries though.... if the 1500mAh has a tough time fitting (closing the battery door), how bad will the 1800mAh be? Might require an extended battery door...

QCell SkyRocket 3850mAh Extended Battery

with stock battery, i've been getting extremely horrible battery life around 6 hours maximum with tethering. I think most people using this phone in this forum is getting the same problem
Went to amazon.com and found a 3850mAh Extended Battery for Skyrocket made by QCell. It have the highest mAh rating among all other manufacturers.
Product arrive 1 day from purchase. The seller seems to ship out pretty quick. I charge the battery for 8 hours prior to use and now with this battery, I can last full day without charge.
The cover that comes with the battery is in reflective black. Matches quite nicely to the phone.

Wish the back wasn't so blocky. Hope OP puts up some pics of his use of this.

It's better idea to buy 3 pack of knock off batteries with charger on Ebay for $10. That's what i've done and i've had the batteries for 2 months now.. The knock off batteries last about 80-90% as long as the original. I always keep two charged and swap them whenever needed and bam back to 100% and no oversized backing in which no case can fit

I got those and they worked ok. Don't last as long as the OEM but you have an option of switching the batteries when waiting for the other to charge. They take a long time to charge from 0 to 100%. Still a better alternative than getting stuck with 1 battery. For me they last about 4 hours with listening to the radio on LTE and with everything else running in the background. This phone does suck a lot of juice.

Sounds like its not even close to 3800mah, or even 1800mah. Cheap batteries are notorious for overstating their actual capacity.

If u guys read what I wrote you would only have to spend $10 and get 3 batteries along with charger.. One of the batteries lasts a decent amount of time. I've been running on the Ebay battery since 6am and its now 152 pm. And I'm at 30% with decent data usage. I got my stock battery fully charged and ready to go for when I run out.. And I have the other two batteries as back ups if one of the batteries decides to fail. That beats having an oversized backing anyday

It depends on whether you carry a briefcase , are around a single place regularly, or have neither apply to you. I'm all over the place without a bag daily, so batteries in the pockets makes no sense.

Looked at extended batteries but didn't want to add thickness. Found an external battery pack (8400mAh) that works great, especially since I use a tablet. Gotta carry an extra device, but that works for me. Can get smaller capacity for about 1/2 the price of the one I got.
Can't post links since I'm a noob . Search Amazon for Anker external battery pack.

Finally had a chance to run this battery through its passes the last few days.
Let me describe my day.
I run an IT shop so I get lots of status, info, newsletter etc emails throughout the day. In addition I get text messages regularly, email on my gmail account, facebook updates and hourly twitter updates via plume.
So my phone comes off the charger around 7am(on home wifi), I start dealing with work emails at that time.
I do a commute of about 40-45 min where I'll listen to music that is stored on my phone pipe through my cars audio system in the morning. Get to work(go back to wwifi), then the phone will be on on sound notification for text and work email throughout the daily. I also run NoLED for notification.
Lunch time I'll come off wifi as I head out but I'll the phone will see increase usage as I'll browse various apps, play a few games, etc.
Back to just status notifications for the rest of the work day(back on wifi), then an evening commute home listening to music again, and back on wifi at home.
With that in my the stock battery will start at 100% and by the end of the day as I get in my car to head home be at about 15%-17%.
Yesterday the extended battery was at 45% when I got in the car, and by about 10:30pm was still at about 15%.
Today I didn't use my phone as much today (limiting it to mostly status updates which still come regularly) and my phone right now is at 65%.
This will work for me. I really only have an extended battery for periods where I'm not going to be near a charger... basically a day when I know I'm going to be out and about, as oppose to at work or in my car.
So with that being said I'm happy with the purchase.
edit: I also own an Energizer XP18000 which I can use to charge my phone and my Xoom 4G tablet that will come in to play when I head out on business trips for IT conferences.

So, you're gettng a 30% increase from a supposed 1950mah increase in battery capacity over the 1850 mah stock. That sounds like a 2400mah battery rather than a 3800mah battery.

My testing was very unscientific and this is really only the first day of usage. I vaguely remember that with many of these batteries folks have commented that the increase gains fairly quickly over a short period of usage/recharging?

Thoughts on Anker 2800mAh extended battery?

Any thoughts on this battery? Has anyone tried it out? I've heard good things about the Anker 1550mAh battery for the O2X/G2X, so I'm kind of optimistic about this one. However, I recently ordered a GTMax 3500mAh from Amazon.ca, so I'll reserve my decision on purchasing this one until I'm able to test that one out.

I have a cheapo Amazon "3500mah" battery which after testing turned out to be only a little over 2000 mah however the Anker batteries appear to not bullsh¡t about their numbers so I would say using logic and past experience that it would be legit and worth it if you want the extra junk in your trunk ( or pocket)

Don't be quick to be hating on the bohemoth.
I have found that when you first get a new battery there is a "break in" period. Not that this time will make any difference in performance long term but it normally takes a few charges or even as many as 10 to reach its peak mah capacity.
This has been documented on a few threads in this forum.

Yup. Will do. I've seen a lot of people talk up battery monitor widget, so I installed it on my current battery to get used to how it works and so I have some old data to compare to.
I also started using Juice Defender. Hopefully that doesn't skew the data. Well, I guess technically it doesn't matter as long as it skews it the same way.
Anyway, Amazon currently estimates a Wednesday - Thursday arrival date of next week. I'll update asap!

Right on yeah I'm a big jd fan too. Pisses me off from time to time but the 1.7x battery life is totally worth it for me. As far as I have seen there is no interference between jd and bmwp thanks for the update
Pin it to Win it.

Pretty sure JD is a necessity to Android; everyone I know has it and loves it (including me)
Related note: I received the GTMax 3500mAh I mentioned in the first post and am currently taking it through some cycles. I gotta say that it's a very noticeable improvement. I'm only on the first cycle, so we'll see if it gets better/worse. I'll be sure to post a comparison between the two (stock and extended) once I've had at least five full cycles.

Ok.. got my battery last night! First off, the place that shipped it got it here on Monday when Amazon estimated Wednesday at first, then moved it to Friday. So I'm already impressed with the third party provider.
Photos are attached.
First is the G2x with regular battery (and no TPU case that I normally keep it in)
Second is the 2800 mAh battery sticking in it for reference
Third is with the 2800 mAh case on.
I charged to 100 yesterday, and it's been running for the last 23 ½ hours, and it's at 40% currently. I've been using the hell out of it too just trying to kill it: Draw Something, Defender, texts, google chats, email, WiFi on all the time (but again, JD is running).
It's obviously bottom-heavy now with this beast in it, so that's taking some getting used to. I actually like it when the phone is being held vertically, but it kind of drives me crazy when I'm holding it horizontally. I'm sure I'll get used to it.
One thing that screws with all my plans - LG released 2.3.4 update yesterday too before I knew this battery was here, so I unrooted, flashed the updated and re-rooted. I'm now running 2.3.4 stock/root rather than my EB AOSP ISC ROM I was running before. I thought I'd have 3-4 days before the battery was here.
Anyway, more updates as I manage to kill this thing and see how it goes.
EDIT - going to bed. 29 and a half hours into first charge, at 30% currently. Will update tomorrow after work, once I 0 it out and recharge.
EDIT - 44 hours on first charge, almost exactly. Monday night at 7:47 to Wednesday afternoon at 3:51. Starting charge up now.
EDIT 3 - Uploading some usage photos. I think I'm an idiot when it comes to Battery Monitor Widget. Frankly most of this just doesn't mean anything to me, and the place I think I should see mAh estimate shows nothing. Anyway, this is normal daily usage - mostly some chatting, email, WiFi (because work appears to be build in some kind cellular Faraday Cage), lots of Draw Something, Temple Run and Defender 2. For some reason Defender doesn't show up.
Edit 4 - These screens were taken at 6%, and it easily could have lasted more time. I just wanted to charge it up and be done for the night.
Anyway, after a week or so of using this, I think it's a solid battery, but one that I'll probably pack away as a spare for weekend trips when I don't have access to a charger. I have dedicated chargers at home and work, so battery life isn't much of a concern.
For $12 I got this battery, a free USB "universal" card reader, and very fast shipping. Totally worth it.

Sounds really promising so far. The thickness is about identical to the 3500mAh one I got, but the Anker seems to outperform the GTMax so far if I compare your experience to mine.
How's the temperature? Is there a sensor?

Battery Monitor Widget measures the temperature, though I don't know how accurate it is.
I've not seen it pass 26 degrees. Stock was running 34.5 degrees when I popped it out.

Yeah I know BMW measures temp, but when you look at the graph does it show any fluctuation at all? BMW gets the temperature information from the battery's built-in temperature sensor. If it doesn't have one, all the graph will show is a straight line.
This GTMax battery gets pretty warm. Especially when charging. I'm charging it right now and the temperature is about 41C... which is hotter than the stock.
I'm definitely leaning towards this anker battery now

Those estimates aren't correct. My JD was telling me 1.9x battery, but I stopped using it and my battery lasts longer because the phone doesn't wake up every thirty minutes.

Obligatory Extended Battery Thread

Thanks to the abysmal battery life on the MyTouch 4G Slide, I've taken to ordering extended batteries for my phone. Right now I've got these coming my way:
Hyperion Samsung i8190 Galaxy S III Mini 2 x Battery + Charger (1600mAh each)
3600mAh Extended Battery + Back Cover for Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini i8190 Black
Anyone else have extended batteries?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you've got the money, Mugen released a 3400mAh extended battery (link goes to original thread).

the 3500 battery (not good the cover)
I test for now a (2100 mah) battery

It still amazes me that battery technology is still lagging majorly behind all other tech...
That 3500 battery looks huge!

yes battery 3500, dimension (+- ) x 2.
delivery battery + new cover

3600mAh battery might be good for special occations, but not for everyday use. To big!

I got the Hyperion batteries in. So far they're lasting about 10 hours off the charger. I'm still waiting on the 3600mAh battery.

Got the 3600mAh battery in today. If you're going to order it, I suggest getting a plastic pry tool because this battery cover will be very hard to remove from the phone.

Can you upload a pic of it? Would be good to see how much bigger it makes the phone!

I'll post comparison pictures sometime before 2300 EST tonight.
By the way, Mugen doesn't have an extended battery for either our phone or the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (which uses the same battery).

Using a SD card as a basis of comparison...
Sorry about the poor lighting, but that's why I put the phone next to the card.

Certainly makes it chunky! Let us know how long you get with it.

9 hours, 65% power left. I'd post battery stats but I had to reboot.

25 hours, moderate use, two reboots, 41% left.

Exactly, except I stick with the trains here in the US and each and every single one of them has an outlet to charge up electronic devices with. This battery is perfect for when I'm at work and can't always get to an outlet.

By the way, 36 hours off the charger, eased up on the use, four reboots, 24% power left.

42 hours, light usage, 20% remaining.

Can you post up times, normal battery vs this battery?

Note 4 Anker battery

How are you guys feeling about this battery? I decided to try it out, back when I had the GS3 I bought one of those 9000mah batteries and it was an extremely rare day that I went below 50% battery, so I went for the 6000mah anker battery here since it is cheaper.
I definitely feel like it has extended life, but it feels like it's only about 50% better as opposed to 100% longer life. I can usually make it to the end of the day now, whereas before I was putting it on the charger when I'd get home from work every day.

It all depends on the use of the phone. I know people that make 3 days use with Zerolemon and some make 18 hrs.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Anker 6400mah?
[email protected] BOC5 stock, for now.

Im thinking the same!
I want to buy the replacement battery for note 4 3220mah , they say they have stronger cells!
Anyone can confirm this? Any comparisons with stock samsung battery
After LP update BOC5 my battery life is decreased , atm i am at 42% with 3hours and 6 minutes of SOT with a total of 8hours
Also if i root it and greenify some sh!t will i see big difference?

I haven't seen any change with greenify anymore. Have done test with it and without. It drains more battery running in the background on the note 4

I bought the 2 ankar batteries that a rotate with the OEM. they are very good and worth the money.
only complaint would be there is a plastic piece on the bottem of the battery that locks it into place. I left it in my car a couple time and it melted and fell off. so now on one of the batterys it fits loose and sometime makes my phone reboot from being knocked around. but i added some tape to the bottem and it fixed the lock and i dont have the problem anymore. it only happened with one of the batteries.

is the battery life better on the anker one? than the original samsung battery

seems comparable, I don't use the stock battery that much since I can quick charge or swap for a full charged (using the external charger included with the 2 pack)

I've had pretty good results. I went 2 days 6 hrs with 7:15 screen on, 20 hrs wifi, 34 hrs 4g screen on 50-60% brightness
i'll be posting a thread in a bit on it.

I posted (at length) on my experience with the 3220mah battery here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60356709&postcount=7
Hope that helps

I just got the Anker 3220 last week & so far it does seem to do a little bit better than the stock battery. Not by much, but I've definitely noticed that I don't need to put on on the charger as much.
